Dr. Robert Malone to Rogan: US in Mass Formation Psychosis Over COVID-19

Key mRNA contributor Dr. Robert Malone, a prominent skeptic of mandatory COVID-19 vaccinations, gave an interview to popular podcaster Joe Rogan days after Malone was suspended from Twitter during which he suggested the United States is in the midst of a mass formation psychosis.

Our government is out of control on this, Malone said about vaccine mandates in the interview, which was published over the weekend. And they are lawless. They completely disregard bioethics. They completely disregard the federal common-rule. They have broken all the rules that I know of, that I ve been trained [in] for years and years and years.

Malone, an expert in mRNA vaccine technologies who received training at UC Davis, UC San Diego, and the Salk Institute, was banned by Twitter last week. Malone told The Epoch Times last week that Twitter offered no explanation for why his account, which had amassed 500,000 followers, was suspended.

A spokesperson for Twitter told the left-wing Daily Dot outlet that Malone s account was permanently suspended for repeated violations of our COVID-19 misinformation policy & per the strike system outlined here, we will permanently suspend accounts for repeated violations of this policy. Twitter has not responded to an Epoch Times request for comment on Malone s suspension.

Rogan has now moved to Gettr, which I had not heard of before, but a lot of people will be hearing of it now. I tend to think Twitter is violating the first amendment as it is the cat’s paw of Democrats in Congress pushing for more censorship. At a minimum, they’re a publisher. But I wonder if this kerfuffle over Covid vaccinations will accelerate some erosion in Twitter’s monopoly over elite and not-so-elite communication. Looked at from another perspective, it does seem as if the US is just trying clumsily and ineffectively to do what the PRC does in cracking down on free speech. I hope people are paying attention as this really does seem to be our institutions doing their uncoordinated best to eliminate pretty reasonable, if not flawed, dissenting views. It should be resisted.
